Location: Xq28

Factor:
- Symbol: G6PD
- Name: glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
- Entrez ID: 2539
- Ensembl ID: ENSG00000160211

Factors:
  • G6PD glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase ( 2539 / ENSG00000160211 )


  • Description:

    Seven mutations were defined as 'G6PD deficiency', and data refers to all of them as one. Prevalence of G6PD deficiency mutations was compared to frequency in female newborns. The odds ratio is in WT. Mutation carriers = G6PD deficiency frequency, was higher in "cases" cohort.

    Ethnicity: Chinese
    Age of cases: >80

    Statistics
    - Number of cases/controls: 173 total (see notes) (initial)
    - Odds ratio: 6.3
    - p-value: 0.013 [0.013]
    - Significant: Yes

    Study Design
    - Classifications: Longevity-Associated
    - Study type: Candidate Region/Gene
